RAID 0 is an operating mode designed for the fastest transfer rate possible. RAID 1 should be used for redundancy as it instantly and automatically mirrors your data.

StudioRAID mini Portable Hard Drive supports lightning-quick transfer rates over USB 3.0, easily configurable RAID 0 and RAID 1 modes, eSATA and FireWire, plus you can operate it with bus-power, so you don't have to worry about finding an outlet...the ultimate portability advantage. You'll also spend less time worrying and more time creating with automatic health monitoring and intelligent fan cooling.

StudioRAID mini uses a temperature-controlled quiet fan for maximum airflow and proper cooling. The enclosure has been designed with front-panel ventilation to draw cool air in, while exhausting warm air out the back. This helps to ensure the performance and reliability of critical components.

Custom sensors monitor the health of your StudioRAID mini, warning you of activity patterns that indicate potential problems with your drive. We are confident that our drive systems perform at the most reliable level. We back them up with a 3-Year warranty, 2-Year Free Basic Data Recovery Policy, and 1-Year Advance Replacement (U.S. Continental 48 States only).
